This is their driveway
The house with all our wet towels from river swimming
This is Charley.
Their dreamy barn
The chicken yard
The neighbor's field
The two houses together with the mountain in the background
These two girls became best best friends instantly. It was the most precious precious thing to behold. They are both middle children and they just understood each other's hearts.
We don't have a trampoline so this was a big exciting treat for him
Some how rope swings are always the best swings aren't they?
Their pond and all our seven children around it plus some parents. My friend and I have known each other since we were eight. We have been through some really hard things together and there are little ones missing in this picture that we will again see some day up in heaven. When I see a picture like this I think about them and love them so much too!!!
Little friends just five weeks apart in age
This sweet girl is so adorable
Three generations in this picture
He LOVED horse back riding. Who knew!!!!
The dad's earnestly chatting about? Maybe this wood shed that is being constructed.
We ate every meal beside the garden
Time to head to the swimming hole!
I went riding! My first time in YEARS (I owned a horse back in the day when I was twelve!) as you may be able to tell by my expression...I was a bit unsure but it all came back to me and I had a wonderful ride.
They have an outhouse...of course
This is their chicken house...I just can't even handle all the beauty!!!!!
The littles are preparing to watch a play put on by the three oldest as grandparents and parents stand to watch as well
And this is the play they constructed a stage from the summer kitchen and a sheet
All in all seriously this place was just manna from heaven for my soul. I am so thankful we went. We were so blessed.
For every picture I comment in my head and so I can't leave a proper one here or it would be a post if its own. Thank you for sharing!
